Resurrection Blues

"Resurrection Blues started with a dream about a harmonica; one that produces a beautiful sound - and calls the dead back to listen, just as the flute did in the tale of The Pied Piper. It's no secret that I love a ghost story, so after that it didn't take long for the other elements to come together.Marcus plays in a band at a club, every night, to a disaffected audience that takes very little notice of the music. When he sees the harmonica in a store window, he has to have it, and is delighted when he finds the audience starts to really take notice of the band each night. Things are looking up. Pretty soon, he realises it's more than that - scattered in amongst the audience are ghosts that appear when he starts to play the new harmonica. One night, it brings his mother back - and she has a warning for him. If he keeps playing, he'll raise a monster, the ghost of a murderer, and it'll come for him as it did his own father. Marcus must revisit his past to find the key to destroying his nemesis, and in doing so free the ghosts the creature has enslaved since its own passing."
